CrimWalCoug Walk-on

His entire professional career has been in different capacities as a football coach. Has been a thought leader in adapting management principles to athletics. Does not connect well with fans - I do not think he would do well at fundraising.

Not that there are signs pointing to this happening, but who are the viable candidates to replace Tom Holmoe?

I'm LDS and I like sports so I think I would be a great fit.

fredy - been on CB for 10+ years, had a son recruited by BYU, not a donor so probably not good at fundraising

So, I'm still kicking the tires around here to see if it's worth $10.

Once you become a donor you'll break into my top 10 of potential replacements for Tom Holmoe

CrimWalCoug

4/11/16 9:59pm

Wait you just became a donor today after 10+ years!!

Chad would be my guess as first choice.

I think Chad Lewis is being groomed to take over the top spot when Holmoe

Brian Santiago would be a huge mistake

Chad Lewis - 44 years old, current Associate Athletic Director with fundraising responsibilities

Not sure BYU could recover from Santiago. I know I couldn't.

It would likely be considered a step down for him, but what about Danny Ainge?

CrimWalCoug

4/11/16 6:20pm

Step down for Chad ... from associate AD to AD? Am I missing something?

ManicBlue

4/11/16 6:32pm

Hmm. He said Danny Ainge.

Your actually looking at the post above the OP. The OP you replied to does not

smh ... do you know what OP means?

ManicBlue

4/11/16 8:47pm

The sentence structure seems pretty clear he's talking about Ainge

I disagree...

OP at least in my opinion can mean the Original Post that you responded to or to

ColonelMustard7

I follow this and I think to myself, "what a weird bunch!" On any other board, there'd be name calling after the first

"Likely be considered a step down"? Ya think?

The Dude Abides

4/11/16 8:00pm

Let's face it Danny Ainge is at the peak of his career so any next step would be a step down; however, he could

How much lower stress would BYU be than the Celtics? He'd have to worry about

bretonnia

4/11/16 8:23pm

I don't see it happening. He is doing an amazing job with the celtics right now

ColonelMustard7

4/11/16 8:41pm

I don't see it happening either, but I think he would be my number one candidate.

CrimWalCoug

4/11/16 8:59pm

What did I miss? Link?

Hank Rearden

"not that there are signs pointing to this happening"

ColonelMustard7

4/11/16 8:43pm

So did I miss read it or did you change now to not

Hank Rearden

4/11/16 8:45pm

It's always said "not" since I first saw the post. Maybe there was a typo when

Steve Young? He's about Holmoe's age though, so Holmoe would have to leave soon-ish for him to be a viable candidate.

LilToney

4/11/16 6:52pm

Steve Young is 54, Holmoe is 56

CrimWalCoug

4/11/16 8:45pm

My idea of soon-ish is within 5 years, I don't know we could convince a sixty+ Steve to come out of retirement for us.

LilToney

4/11/16 10:51pm

Yes, people would be begging Steve Young to take their money. No doubt
